It's been said that there were two kinds of rock guitarists: Jeff Beck and those who wanted to be Jeff Beck.
There is now only one kind of rock guitarist.
RIP Jeff Beck

The Boeing 747
The last one just left the factory for the final time.
I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.
One day they're going to ban them.
